Article Synopsis
- The Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) in the EU aims to ensure the production quality and geographical authenticity of regional foods, including honey, which is valued for its health benefits and authenticity.
- This study analyzed the metagenomic profiles of Spanish honeys from three PDO regions and compared them to non-PDO honeys using machine learning models to identify microbial biomarkers linked to the origin of the honeys.
- Results showed that machine learning models could accurately differentiate between PDO and non-PDO honeys while identifying specific microbial biomarkers and enhancing traceability methods for food authenticity.
